Vintage lighter

By lynnbaze, 17 January, 2023
Description

I believe this was my grandfather's. I don't know the age, but I would guess 50-60 years old (my dad is 86, and it was his father's). It has Mother of Pearl inlay. Looks to be in working order. The bottom is stamped PREMO. Licensed under US pat. 1637855.
